Pros

Decent benefits. Cool employees. Good lower management. WFH (until they took it away).

Cons

Secretive, dishonest c suite. Pretend to care about employees but don't at all. Blame employees and lay them off when we don't meet unrealistic goals. Change tactics so often that we are never able to see the fruit of our work before it's decided results were too slow and we shift gears again. They run the company completely on a quarter by quarter basis and literally ALL they care about is that they can tell the board we're profitable (even if that's only because they laid off tons of people). They don't look to the long term or see the benefit of investing in their talented employees if it makes them look at all bad to their conservative Mormon board. Lower management is mostly great, but upper management is hired almost exclusively by internal connections rather than merit. If you really care about saving money and want to prove you care about employees then cut execs massive pay first. (I'm not talking about JJ not getting a bonus lmao he never should have gotten one)

Pros

Fast paced environment with LOTS of hands-on experience with many different tools. The people are the reason to stay, lots of smart and caring people, managers, and leaders towards the bottom of the food chain.

Cons

Upper Management has completely destroyed this company and gutted it. In my several years at the company, communication is as poor as it could be. Bonuses are promised and then not followed up on. RIFs happen far too frequently. It is abundantly clear that this company does NOT care about it's employees, and at the moment is almost seems like they are trying as hard as they can to get people to quit so they don't have to pay severances before acquiring more companies and moving headquarters to Texas. The culture in the days of Overstock was incredible, it made people excited about being able to work there. Now people are hanging on by threads, large teams are now carried on the backs of just 1-2 people without additional pay as we see co-workers get laid off left and right. It is not sustainable. Important things are being missed because there are not enough people to do the work, which will end up biting the company in the butt for compliance and finance reasons.
